COMMUNITY FORUMS

MCFA may provide groups, forums, blogs, chat rooms, message boards, private e-mail options, and other public or restricted posting areas or community forums in which users may post messages or provide content (collectively referred to herein as “Community Forums”) on the Website. If MCFA provides any such Community Forum or if you use a Community Forum, you are solely responsible for your own communications and the consequences of posting those communications. MCFA does not assume any responsibility for the consequences of any Community Forum communications on or arising from use of the Website. In cases where you feel threatened or believe someone else is in danger, you should contact your local law enforcement agency immediately.

In consideration for being allowed to use the Community Forums, you agree that the following actions shall constitute a material breach of these Terms and Conditions:

MCFA reserves the right to record dialogue in Community Forums. MCFA is not responsible for screening or monitoring material posted by you or any other person or entity. If notified by a user of communications that are alleged not to conform to these Terms and Conditions, MCFA may investigate the allegation and determine in its sole discretion to remove or request the removal of the communications. MCFA reserves the right to remove communications that are abusive, illegal, disruptive or that otherwise fail to conform with these Terms and Conditions. MCFA reserves the right (but is not obligated) to delete any communications posted on the Website, regardless of whether such communications violate these Terms and Conditions.

Furthermore, MCFA reserves the right (but is not obligated) to monitor or disclose any type of posting on the Community Forums for adherence to these Terms and Conditions, if required in the course of normal operations and maintenance of the Website, or if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to (i) comply with the law or comply with legal process served; (ii) protect and defend the rights of MCFA or others; or (iii) act in an emergency to protect the personal safety of our users or the public. MCFA HAS NO LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY TO USERS OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR PERFORMANCE OR NONPERFORMANCE OF THE AFOREMENTIONED SCREENING ACTIVITIES.

If MCFA offers the option of private email messages between users through a Community Forum or elsewhere on its Website, MCFA may not be able to monitor the content of those communications from a technical standpoint, and does not plan to monitor those communications, so users should be particularly aware of the risks of inappropriate content. MCFA shall have no responsibility or liability for private email messages among users, or any consequences arising from such messages.

MCFA reserves the right to employ filters to automatically screen out postings or information which MCFA deem inappropriate based on search terms it has chosen to “flag” inappropriate content (which may include some personally identifiable information in MCFA’s discretion). MCFA does not represent or guarantee the truthfulness, accuracy or reliability of any of the material posted by Community Forum users or endorse any opinions expressed by such users.

ANY RELIANCE UPON CONTENT POSTED IN A COMMUNITY FORUM IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Any public or restricted Community Forum areas are for discussion and debate only. You may not use any Community Forum area to post or transmit advertisements or commercial solicitations of any kind. You may not post or transmit any material of any nature, including text, audio, software, animation or photographs, belonging to any person or party other than yourself, without the prior written consent of such owner. Simply because material is available on the internet does not mean it is in the public domain. The vast majority of materials on the internet are protected by copyright and trademark laws. MCFA shall have the right, but not the obligation, to monitor any Community Forum areas of the Website to determine compliance with these Terms and Conditions and any other operating rules that may be established by MCFA from time to time.

By posting messages or other material in any Community Forum areas of the Website, you are granting to MCFA and its licensees a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, non-exclusive and irrevocable right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, perform and display any posting by you (in whole or in part) and/or to incorporate it in other works in any form, media or technology now known or hereafter developed.

Through your use of the MCFA Community Forums, you are agreeing to all of the aforementioned terms and conditions for such Community Forums contained herein.

You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless MCFA and its directors, shareholders, officers, affiliated companies, employees, volunteers, agents, licensors and suppliers, from and against any and all claims, actions or demands, liabilities and settlements, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and accounting fees, resulting from, or alleged to result from, your use of any Community Forums or use by others of any community forums with respect to you, including, without limitation, any claim of libel, defamation, harassment, violation of rights of privacy or publicity, loss of service or infringement of intellectual property or other rights, or violation of these Terms and Conditions.
